I have a microwave that just died...the control board is dead.

I have had this microwave for a number of years and suspect I could
wire a substitute for the controller...likely a timer.

So is this microwave worth saving?

I note that the new ones look like they have been "valued engineered"
to where they may not be the best for the long run.

Your opinion?

Thanks

I would say that in general the new microwave ovens are built
better than the old ones. Technology marches on and they have become
better.

Don't bother trying to fix and old one. It is not really worth it.
